Maintenance

• Keep the mulch off of the trunk
• Mulch should be about 2 inches thick
• Watering
• Watering less frequent but in larger amounts
• Typical lawn irrigation is not enough for all trees

Keys to Helping Struggling Trees

• Identify your tree
• Different trees are prone to different issues
• Knowing your tree can help identify the problem
• Identify the issue
• Biotic
• Insect
• Rot
• Root disease
• Abiotic
• Too much water
• Too little water
• Damage to the trunk
• Iron Deficiency
• Find the Solution

Common Issues and How to Treat

• Maple Turning Yellow During the Summer
• Problem: Iron Deficiency
• Solution: Yearly Iron Supplements
• Linden with Split Bark on Trunk
• Problem: Typically sunscald which occurs from freezing and thawing through the

winter

• Solution: Keep the tree as healthy as possible so that it can seal off the damage and

wrap the tree with tree wrap in the winter to prevent further damage

• Honey Locust tree with sunken orange and black bark
• Problem: This is a canker that is often a result of too much water
• Solution: Clear the area around the base of the tree and check the moisture of the

ground to see if soil is saturated, if possible reduce watering. Sometimes the issue is a result of clay soils and poor drainage.
